    Excellent steak
    Michael P.

    Went here before seeing a show (Moulin Rouge), on 5/17/24, and have to say I was impressed. The staff was very warm, friendly, and attentive. The dishes were very well prepared. Of particular note was the fillet mignon. Excellent. I would recommend this place without hesitation.

    Classic American dishes done well. From service to cocktails, nothing disappointed. The spring rolls are to die for and the mozzarella triangles with marinara hit the spot. Each dish was delicious and classically prepared, a great spot for a night out

    Boneless Ribeye lobster Mac and Cheese and Sauteed Mushrooms
    Anessa O.

    Underwhelming. We stopped for lunch. Thought that we were in for a treat considering the lobster bisque was yummy and the oysters were perfection but sadly that was not the case . Ordered steak medium , had to send it back because it was over cooked and when they brought it back to me , it wasn't the best tasting . He got the ny strip , which tasted so much better than mine . They only offered 1 cabernet sauvignon by the glass . It was ok I guess. We ordered mushrooms and lobster mac . Everything was just "ok" Upside- the bartender was A1. Those old fashioned helped BIG TIME . Just go straight to the bar next time.

    Lobster Bisque
    Aurora A.

    Our first food stop when we arrived in New York! We were three of about 10 people total in the restaurant. They had a great lunch menu with a variety of choices. We had the lobster bisque, Caesar salad with chicken, and steak sandwhich. The food was AMAZING. One of the best Caesar salads we've ever had. Only complaint was our server took a while to come back after we had finished eating. We wanted to get walking and he was nowhere to be found for a while.

    Baked Clams

    Greetings and salutations yelpers. My first review as an Elite Yelper..yay me! Ok, this spot was on my spreadsheet and last minute dinner with an out of town friend decided to dined. I was so looking forward to an amazing meal and sadly that was not so. Our waiter, not the most engaging, a bit stand blunt. No engaging conversation, recommendations etc. To start the bread brought to table seemed like dinner rolls one would purchase in the supermarket. Appetizers: we ordered the baked clams and baked shrimp. Both very bland and needed some form of seasoning. As a new found baked clam lover I was very disappointed. Avid shrimp lover disappointed once again. Main course: Shrimp Milanese, once again lacking in flavor. It felt like something to be served in a pizzeria and not worth the $34. So much breaded didn't recognize it was shrimp and wondered if they gave us chicken instead. Lobster Vodka Pasta: the saving Grace which made my rating 3 instead of 2. It was delicious and flavorful and made me wonder how the other dishes were so bland. Another reason for the low score was the constant interruption from various staff asking how are things. I get it you want to be attentive, but it was overkill and it really curtailed the ability for my friend and I to catch up with what is happening in our lives. After a while not to be rude, it was annoying. All in all I really had high hopes and was looking forward to a great dinner but sadly it was just mediocre. The wow factor I was expecting was not to be.

    We popped in for Happy Hour. We sat at the bar and were served in a very timely matter. The bartender was very friendly. Nice Happy Hour Menu. We had the Baked Clams, the Mussels (in white wine sauce), and the Mac and Cheese. It was all excellent! The bread they served us was really great. Especially dunking it in the "juice" of the mussels! The mussels and the clams were perfectly cooked and both nice and small. They weren't Huge clams or Mussels like they were on steroids!! Drinks were good! Price was extremely reasonable. For happy hour we had 3 small bites, and 3 drinks, $65.00! And it was all great!

    Penne lobster pasta
    Latara S.

    My sister decided this is where she wanted to go for her 29th birthday. Not everyone wasn't pleased with the prices on the menu but I will say if your looking to go here with family and not sure what to get the penne lobster pasta it was so delicious for me. It was so creamy and filled with lobster pieces not as much lobster as I would've liked only because I love huge lobster chucks. But overall this is a great choice if you want good filling food for a decent price.

    Ate here on a fall break trip 2 October 2023. Being in New York City after a long day of site seeing I was looking forward to a great dinner. This place seemed like the best from walking a couple blocks. The atmosphere was. Ice and the gentlemen greeting us at the door was fantastic. Super nice guy. Wish I would have caught his name. I'm from the south I wasn't expecting the kind welcome like we get in the south. Entering the restaurant I was pleased with how everything looked and was ready for a great meal. When the waitress came to the table there seemed to be a language barrier, to be understandable for New York and their smashing of culture and my hillbilly accent from Kentucky. Ha. Maybe this could explain the mix up in food preparation. I ordered the 14oz ribeye medium rare and it was served rare. Overall the taste of the steak was very bland. They literally put no seasoning on the steak and the fat rendered no flavor. The cut was very pour and had a lot gristle, making it hard to cut. Was very disappointed in the steak. Maybe I should have expected that from the name of the restaurant; note do not order steak from a seafood restaurant. You will always be disappointed. My wife ordered the wedge salad and was pleased, made comment that the bacon added the finishing touch. My daughter ordered the meatball and spaghetti, my daughter is very well traveled and keeps her on blog on Yelp saod the spaghetti sauce was very cheap and tasted like something from a can at a grocery store.

I came here to throw down on some seafood and that's exactly what we did. I found out about this place because one of my favorite TikTok foodies posted that she came here when she was visiting from Chicago. It was also my friend's birthday so we figured we'd check it out. If you come with a group of 4 or more, including the birthday person, they eat for free, which is a pretty nice perk. This place lived up to every bit of the hype. We did the $125 option which includes lobster. If you have people in your group who are on the fence about spending the extra money, just remind them it's only about $35 more and that's basically the cost of one lobster anywhere else. Here you're getting unlimited lobster. The food literally just kept coming. At one point we were running out of room on the table. One thing I really appreciated was that the staff noticed and started putting multiple items on the same plates instead of bringing everything out separately. It sounds small but it actually helped a lot and showed they were paying attention. The drinks weren't super strong but they definitely weren't weak either. If you love seafood, come hungry and bring a group. The vibes were great, the service was on point, and we left absolutely stuffed.

The restaurant was very bright and colorful with lots of natural lighting, and wasn't too loud. We decided to order the selection for two, selection 1.

I also really enjoyed the zaab wings, which had great spice and crunch. The crab fried rice paired very well with the sauces too. I found the other two dishes less memorable.

    Came here for a slightly early dinner after a Broadway show with a party of 4 on a Sunday evening…read more We had a reservation, but it didn't seem like we would have needed one, but I suppose better safe than sorry. The ambiance feels straight of the golden age, which is an aesthetic I'm certainly a sucker for. Even their robust cocktail menu fits the bill and is one of the prettiest menus I've ever had the joy of perusing. Staff was able to sit us a little bit ahead of our reservation which was also much appreciated. Wait staff was also very helpful and attentive, I don't think I've ever had my water glass so topped off! Starting off with cocktails, this place is a gin bar through and through and you'd be making a mistake if you didn't try one of their many options. I went with the 10,000 words, which you simply just give a spirit of your choice (I picked gin of course) and whether you antes) wanted your drink shaken or stirred and the bartender does the rest, so a bit of a surprise! I wound up with their version of The Last Word which was delightfully citrusy but I was hoping I'd wind up with something a little more adventurous app things considered. My girlfriend got the blackberry G&T, which was not only very pleasing to look at but delicious to boot. For food, we started with splitting some zucchini blossoms and beef cheek bao buns (both come in portions of 3). Both were tasty, but I love a good bao bun and these were so light and pillowy, I could have just went for an order of those for my main course. For the entree I went for the roasted half chicken, perhaps the most unassuming choice on the menu but this was maybe the best roast chicken I've ever had. Prepared perfectly, cooked to perfection, excellent portion size, and the kicker of it all was the stunning gravy that I was tempted to lick my plate for. Chicken is very easy to screw up, and they nailed it on all fronts here. My girlfriend went for the Valerie Signature burger with white cheddar and this thing did not mess around! A very rich patty, cooked to her temperature of choice served alongside some garlic truffle fries that made an American classic feel just a little more elevated. Our experience was delightful and I'd love to comeback here again, especially to check out more of the cocktail menu and soak in more of that golden age aura the place gives.

I felt unwelcome, which was tough since I came here for dinner before a Broadway show, & was left without many other available options. I arrived 25 minutes late for my reservation, but was told that my only option was to sit at the bar due to their 30 minute grace period being up (which wasn't true). I looked around the restaurant & saw it was only 20% full, but the hostess then said all the open tables are reserved for guests who are arriving soon. Based on what I saw, it was hard to believe her. I checked open table to see if any reservations were available, and sure enough there was one at 6:15pm -- mind you, I arrived at the restaurant at 5:55pm. So I book the 6:15pm table & inform the hostess. I then sat down to wait for 6:15 to come. As I waited, I noticed the hostess asked each incoming guest whether they were attending a Broadway show & what time each show was at so that they could ensure the guests made it out on time. At 6:06, she comes & says she can seat me because another guest cancelled, which again, I found hard to believe. As she leads me to my table, I noticed she didn't ask if there was a show I was attending, nor the show's start time. I stopped & asked if she wanted to know my show time before seating me, & she looked so surprised. The honest truth is that the hostess did not treat me like a customer. Instead, I felt unwelcome & couldn't help but wonder if it was related to me being Black the only Black person in the restaurant. The food was ultimately alright, but the service here really ruins the experience.
